Who we are...

A theater company serving the community of Bentonville with a mission to preserve the art of musical theater for future generations and all people.

We offer 3 branches of programming

• Professional theater - where we specialize in bringing professional theater artists straight to your backyard. Our last production, FROM BROADWAY WITH LOVE, featured Broadway's Eryn LeCroy (PHANTOM OF THE OPERA) and Dan Micciche (WICKED) at the beautiful Chrystal Bridges for a night of memorable love songs.
• Local theater- where we platform all local performers to bring you some of the art forms most beloved productions. Here you can see your friends and family, teachers, bankers, dentists...ANYONE...as they hit the stage and show us how truly talented Bentonville is! Our last production of HELLO, DOLLY featured Kathryn Parker- a stay at home mom turned thrifting genius in her FIRST EVER production as she absolutely dazzled our audience in the title role.
• Educational theater - where we invest in the next generation of artists in a safe and creative environment that focuses on humility and respect. We have summer production camps and masterclasses throughout the year for all ages. Our last production of ANNIE JR. astounded audiences as 72 kids put on the entire production in just 2 weeks and then performed in 4 sold out shows!

The arts are an integral part of any community and you can help keep it alive right here in Bentonville.
